Middle names
 

My parents gave me a middle name in case I didn't like my first name, but I don't like my middle name so I never use it

I have two middle names. As far as I know everyone over here has the names of a godfather and grandparent on their passport/identity card, but nobody ever uses them.

My name would be Olivier Paul Homer

Mine is James, after my maternal grandfather.

I occasionally tell people to call me James, and they never do.

I've had more luck telling people to call me Peter.

My full name is
Werner (like my father), Gerolf (like someone we don't know; my grandmother seems to have wanted this), Rüdiger (like my grandfather). Rüdiger was the badass Hun Margrave from the Niebelungenlied.

Owen doesn't mean lamb.

Except in the sense that Ewan means a female sheep in English.

Poor mr. macgregor...

Hmm.... well 'lamb' wasn't the only possible meaning... but given my welsh ancestry I thought it was the most likely origin. http://www.behindthename.com/php/sea...owen&submit=Go

In Welsh that means that when you grow up, you'd be raped mercilessly ... and In Australia I'll get eaten for sunday lunch.

I have no middle name. I have two first names and one surname.

Once I meet this guy in a bar that had for some reason been to a wedding where the bride was of some Habsburg line or the like. A lot of middle names. He said he was impressed that the priest cold remember them all. Hell, he would have been impressed if she remembered them all.
